One possible way is to use a USB to serial port adapter.   An adapter
costs about US$30.00.  Then use the serial I/O capability built into
Matlab to write to a serial port.  In the Matlab help file look up
Serial I/O to find information on how to use a serial I/O port. To
find out out what COM port to write to select Control Panel | System |
Hardware Tab | Device Manager.  Click on the + sign next to "Ports".
In the list you should see something like COM9,
